Red frenzy! Gerrard's return leaves this girl in tears as fans recreate the Kop Indonesian 'style'... And this is just a training session

Steven Gerrard will return to Liverpool's starting XI when the Reds kick off their pre-season tour in the Far East against Indonesia on Saturday.

The Reds captain has been out of action since the start of May after undergoing shoulder surgery, but following a successful recovery will return to action inside the Gelora Bung Karno National Stadium when he leads out the Merseyside club.

The tour which will see Liverpool also travel to Australia to play Melbourne Victory at the MCG and Thailand in Bangkok was the targeted playing return for Gerrard who last featured in May's 0-0 Merseyside derby draw with Everton.

Liverpool have proven very popular with the locals in Jakarta but as Gerrard made his way through a crowd of people in the build up to the game, the 33-year-old was met by a female fan very keen to meet the England captain.

Gerrard politely smiled after
acknowledging the fan who shouted 'Gerrard, I love you' and that was all
it took for his female admirer to be reduced to tears which we can only
assume were ones of delight.

It wasn't a one-off either, as the Liverpool players were met with incredible scenes inside the ground when they underwent a training session on the eve of the clash.

Fans packed the stadium in their droves wearing replica kits and brandishing flags and scarves that made it not too dissimilar to what you would see on the Anfield Kop as the Reds were put through their paces by boss Brendan Rodgers.

The match against Indonesia will be Liverpool's second pre-season friendly after they opened with a 4-0 win at Preston before jetting off to the Far East.

Gerrard will be hoping the pre-season tour will have seen him regained match fitness by the time Liverpool host Stoke for their Premier League opener in a month's time.
